See i dont think its possible to duck your head and thrust up. I think when he came up it was because of the contact; he was knocked back and up. If you look closely Robinson's helmet only hit the bottom of his facemask. To me he wasnt trying to hurt him he was trying to go as low as possible on him while Maclin was coming at him, and that was as low as he could possible get.
Either way i dont think there is anything else that Robinson could have done, which makes me think should zone coverage be illegal since it forces these kind of hits.
